tnx to Neutron's posting of the Barbie OS -how cute :wink: there's a real bummer in the link at the very bottom on the page:
http://www.divisiontwo.com/articles/aol1.htm

I always wondered what this AOL-8 might be about (I don't like 'up'grades...), but now it's clear: just b*llsh*t.

Am I strange ? Do people really appreciate beeing 'observed' and have their preferences published worldwide :eek:
Enter a couple of phrazes and the dogs get out...
I mean, I know that this happens undercover, but here it's even advertized in public as a great feature.
We had those great features here, some 50 years ago...

Considering the amount of users AOL supplies I'm getting frightened - not by AOL but by those millions not reacting.
Seems I need a new ISP soon.

cheers, Tom

yes, it's unbelievable so much people step into this.
I prefer to stay strange :wink:

:oops: the story is fictuous as all content of the site
seems I need a couple of new glasses - or pay more attention ? :roll:
but at least I gained my confidence back - no one complained because there wasn't anything to complain - and I still dunno what AOL-8 is... :lol:

how embarassing, Tom
